rafirox · Silence is right. Free is always good. One thing I love about Netflix is it is cheap and everyone can use it. I have an account and all my brothers, children, wife, in laws, etc all use the same account. It is only like what $9 a month? If something beats Netflix, Sword, please let me know. · 388 days ago

Richard Mandella reports that the cut on Beholder’s left hind pastern “is just about healed. We’re waiting for one spot to close in and she’ll be able to train. It might be another week. We’re way ahead of the game. When it happened, I thought she might be out two months.” The two-time Eclipse Award-winning filly came out of her fourth-place finish in the June 7 Ogden Phipps with the injury.

Richard Mandella said two-time Eclipse Award champion Beholder is doing well as she recovers from a cut on her left hind pastern following her fourth-place finish in Saturday’s Ogden Phipps at Belmont Park. “So far it looks like it’s healing well,” the Hall of Fame trainer said Thursday morning. “We’ve not had any infection, which is the important thing. It’s questionable whether she would make the Del Mar meet.”

tmallios · Both laid eggs on the biggest stage. At least Chrome had an excuse. 3 races in 5 weeks and 4 races in 9 weeks. He is not a machine,he succumbed to the stressful journey. Just hope Baby Huey does not wheel him back in the Haskell. Might have a shot for some R & R. Just refrain from asking Alan and the Excersize rider to opine. These guys might give the OK to run back in 3 weeks. · 420 days ago

LAZMANNICK · She got beat by a length after being taken out of her normal running style in a questionable decision by Gary Stevens. That would be the same as asking POS to try and wire the field instead of making her usual come from behind run. Oh I forgot, POS didn’t win either. · 420 days ago

travel_vic · fast horses often do run fast works, just like fast people do jumping jacks fast...same exact thing. Mean only that they are following an exercise program and are sound. · 432 days ago

tmallios · The great thing about this race is that none of the top 3 fillies has a glaring edge in conditioning. Beholder and P.O.S both raced once,and Hatches has 2 races under her belt. This will be a no excuse race. None will claim that tey are tired or any other excuse. All 3 have been pointing to this race since it was carded. As evidenced by the way they have been prepared. This has been the Target. · 432 days ago

Two-time Eclipse Award winner Beholder, set to ship for New York on Thursday, May 29, for the $1 million Ogden Phipps on Belmont Day, June 7, is scheduled to have one workout over the massive Belmont Park oval before the second start of her 4-year-old campaign. “She’ll have a short breeze there before we run,” trainer Richard Mandella said. “She’ll be there a week, so somewhere, four or five days out I’m guessing, she’ll get a short breeze.”

Beholder is due to work in the next few days as she prepares for the $1 million Ogden Phipps on Belmont Stakes Day, June 7. “She couldn’t be better,” Richard Mandella said of the two-time Eclipse Award-winning filly, who made her 4-year-old debut a winning one by capturing the Santa Paula Stakes on April 20.

ConquestCastiel · I was saying it would be awesome if she ran in the Odgen Phipps. It would be even cooler if she won. I'm not predicting she will win. I have no idea who will be running, how she'll be feeling, and for all we know she could be scratched. All I was saying was, it would be the coolest birthday present ever if my favorite filly ran in the Handicap and won. · 458 days ago

coyne.kaylor · It seems possible that TV doesn't know the difference between a hope and a prediction, nor how to correctly spell possibly. · 458 days ago

i didn't use to like her that much before, but i've really fallen in love with her lately. Gary Stevens said today that Beholder is "probably the most intelligent horse i've ever sat on" i know some people that work at Santa Anita or visit Beholder frequently that says she is an absolute sweetheart & a sucker for attention. what a nice filly.

tmallios1 · asatevens is really beginning to crack me up. He is to blame for Point Given,he is to blame for Candy Ride,Beholder is the most intelligent horse. What has he ridden her 3 or 4 times and he can summize this. Enough of the color commentary Gary,you left that profession to ride again. How intelligent must a horse be that in the 4 races you rode her. Physically on the track she was tons the best and fastest racehorse. That would suffice in your next commentary. · 468 days ago

rorschach1992 · Ogden Phipps will be a great race. Princess, and now Beholder, prepping in softer spots to begin their way there. Close Hatches has already won a G2 and G1 this year. I'll definitely be there Sunday to see Beholder, my favorite. · 475 days ago
